Trump might not be a conservative.

That is what keeps me awake at night.

The Constitution now says whatever the hell five out of nine Supreme Court Justices want it to say. Four Justices will be over 80 years old next year. Two of the remaining five are young far left wing Obama appointees who will be legislating from the bench for the next 30 years.

Republicans, even Reagan, historically have batted no better than 50% picking conservative Justices while Democrats always bat 100% picking liberal Justices. If even three of the four octogenarian Justices are replaced with liberals then a far left wing oligarchy of Supreme Court Justices will rule over every aspect of our lives for the next generation to come.

Does anyone believe that Trump will do a better job at picking reliably conservative Justices than any Republican president has since Herbert Hoover? That is what it will take in order to prevent a complete far left wing takeover of the Court.

Would Cruz be able to get any nominees through at ALL?

This is why Karl Rove should have been ... well, *you* fill in the blanks.

P.S. Jeb swallows.
